__ Nov20
fast Day.
Wc learn from common rumor aud a few
ro'-vsjmpors of his party that the Governor
tfdoorgia has set apart this day (Weducs-
dav. Nov. -Nili) as tv day of Fasting, Hu
miliation and Prayor.
Iu view of our sinfulness as individuals
and as a people, it is eminently proper that
tre should in tho dust of humility make
confession ot them, ask pardon ami try to
jo better in the future. In view of tljo
calamities with which our beloved country
inoovr threatened, wo should, amid fasting
anJ prayer, and in sack-cloth and ashes,
deprecate the Divine displeasure, and with
limited voice send our petitions to the
Tiironc Above for a eontiuuaneo of the
blessings we havo so long onjoyod.
This is a dark day for our country ! The
list beacon-light of Freedom is threatened
trail extinction! Tho hopes of the friends
of rational iiberty in nil lands are about to
k crushed out forever! The crowned
de-pots of tho world and the demons in
lie!) behold with infernal gleo the prospect
of an utter failure in tho great experiment
of Humanity to govern itsolf. Let our
roimtry he dismembered lfko the South
American Republics, and what hopo will
tho down-trodden nations have of ever
achieving their liberties!
We believe as much as wo believe in our
existence that Providence has raised up this
mighty nation for a great purpose—wo be
lieve that if our people will do right, we
' ill continue to be blessed of Heaven.
We do not believe, however, that it is
our duty to snbmit to oppression and
wrong, any more than it was the duty of
tur Revolutionary ancestors to do so.
Li t .us then, call upon our merciful Hea
venly Father to direct us aright in tho
present crisis—to conduct us to a safe and
lmnor,tUo deliverunco from our troubles.,
'•In God is our trust,” and we believe he
will yet stive this great country from de-
urui iion and we of tho South from oppress
non, if the people of both sections will all
try to do right. Let us all this day invoke
His guidance.

or rather different sets of opinions afloat
in onr community.
1. Those who aro disunion ists per se—
thoso who believe onr Government lias
proved a failnrc, and want tho Union dis
solved, uo matter what sort of security
may be offered for. the future.
2. Those who believe there is no hope
for a satisfactory settlement in the Union,
and favor immediate secession and sepa
rate State action, regardless of co-opera
tion. * ‘ ' ''
S. There is, as wo belicvo, a far larger
number than both the athfers! combined,
who aro determined to resist Republican
aggression and secure our rights at all haz
ards. They would prefer seeing the Un
ion preserved, if it can he done consistent
ly with these views. If it shall be found
that this cannot bo done, then they are for
an independent Southern Confederacy,
composed of (lie slaveholdir.g States gen
eral ly.
This is, we think, the only safe ground
—it is a ground consistent with our honor
antjl interests, and oho which promises am
ple prot'eetimi to onr rights either in. the
Union or out of it, as circumstances may
rei]ulfo.
We have neither space nor time now to

occasion, endeavor to do so.
confidence in this, and but very little re*»f the Southern people prefer preserving

1 hero arejibont three different parties^jSbiaaces of securing them out of it; thh
being the case, for Heaven’s sake let us for
get our past political differences of opinion
and bury our partisan animosities and
meet together in fraternal council with
coolness and deliberation and adopt somt
means to secure the desire of u!l- patriots.
It is to be expected that we will differ to
some extent as to, the best means ot ac
complishing the common object, viz: the
obtain meat of our Constitutional rights
in the Union. While'the South ought not
to destroy the government simply because
Lincoln is elected President,-still, we ought
not quietly to acquiesco in the ascendency
of those principles of which ho is tho Re
presentative. But what we are to do
seems to be the perplexing and ofWacur-
ring question. I will venture to suggest as
my humble Opinion that each Southern
State ought forthwith, to anuouuse in Con
vention its position upon the distracting
question of slavery, ami that a Convention
of all the Southern Slates be immediately
culled and let it harmenizc tho positions of
tlyj various States and decide for them a
common platform embodying our plain
Constitutional rights upon which the united
South can stand, and by which the united
South will die! And let that Convention
demand of Mr. Lincoln an unqualified en
dorsement of those Constitutional rights.
It might while still in session dispatch com
presents ttves.

SOIL-LIFTING PLOW.
W HEN a surface Plow is ran at a depth of 12 inches,
and a two-horse Soil-Lifting Plow follows, which
is capable of disintegrating to a depth of fifteen inches
more, there is a total disintegrated depth of twenty-
seven inches, and thoso who so practice will find that
they have another farm beneath that represented on
thoir map. A smaller size of this Plow, (one horse)
thinner in tbe sole aud more dart-liko in its figure, is an
admirable implement for cultivating crops, and will do
the work of mare than forty men with hoes. With the
corn crop, this tool may run close alongside the corn,
and to tho full depth of twelve inches when the corn is
but threo inches high, and before tho roots occupy the
space between the rows; this will lift the soil, move ev
ery corn plant with the soil, and for so slight a distance
as not to separate tho particles from the roots, yet so
completely loosening tho mass that the plant may be
pioked up with the fingers. This is more thorough csl-
.tivation than can be obtained by one hundred honings,
leaving the soil in Setter tilth and cutting off no roots.
More than twenty thousaud of these Plows were sold
Inst year.

REMOVAL.
T HE undersigned, Agent for tbo above Fertiliser,
in consequence of its marked success tho past sea
son, aud the greatly increased demand arising there
from, has made arrangements with the manufacturer
for a large and full supply; and requiring greater facili
ties for storage and other accommodation, has tsken the
four story Warehouse as below, where ho will be able *0
supply any quantity required, with promptness. He
msylie alluwod to express his satisfaction in view of the
fact that of the numerous purchases made of him by
planters, generally for the purpose of making compara
tive tests with other fertilisers, pot one case to his knowl
edge where our Fertiliser has pot shown a decided supe
riority. Planters -who have used Stupes’ Phosphate,
now make it their solo reliance, abd are ordering (some
of them) ns much os fifty tons, M Use the next season.
This fact speaks for itself. We have discovered aquali-
ty, developed In tbe drouth, which was before unobserv
ed, viz: its hygrometio power, or .capacity, to absorb
moisture from the atmosphere, which obviated to a large
extent the late unparrclled drought where it was used,
while most other fertilisers were not only valueless,
but positively injurious to the. plant. The safety and
profit as a money investment, arising from tbo use of
Mapcs’ Phosphate, are now placed beyond question, and
tlio experience of the past .season, has established what
we have, without hesitation, always asserted for it, that
is the only fertiliser reliable under all circumstances of
soil, mode of cultivation, and of weather.
The undersigned la also prepared to supply any de
scription of AGRICULTURAL MACHINERY and
IMPLEMENTS, of the latest improved patterns adapt
ed to Southern cultivation, at lowest prices .S' : -■ '
